Right: your path stops after /ws/1/release/. You'll have to take
additional steps if you want to incorporate the query string (everything
after the "?") into the new URL.

Check out the "use-query-string" setting.

It splits the URI into path and query string (which is not part of the
path). I think use-query-string will do what you want.
